libmsc/gsm_04_11.c: introduce and use gsm411_assign_sm_rp_mr()

Initially, it was assumed that if there is no active RAN connection,
we can just start counting from 0x00, as there are no other SMS
related transactions, and transaction itself is allocated using
talloc_zero(). Until now it was looking good, but...

As soon as we establish RAN connection with subscriber, we already
have a transaction with SM-RP-MR 0x00, but conn->next_rp_ref also
remains 0x00 - it isn't being increased!

It means that we can face a SM-RP-MR conflict (or collision) if
another MT SMS would arrive to the MSC (from SMSC over GSUP)
when this transaction is still active, i.e. the first SMS is
still being sent, because conn->next_rp_ref++ would
return 0x00 again.

Moreover, there might be already a MO SMS transaction, and using
the conn->next_rp_ref counter wouldn't prevent us from having
duplicate SM-RP-MR value.

Let's get rid of this per-connection counter, and introduce a
function instead, that would iterate over existing transactions
and look for an unused SM-RP-MR value.

This change makes the following test cases pass:

  - TC_gsup_mt_sms_rp_mr,
  - TC_gsup_mo_mt_sms_rp_mr.
